How was the derivative for the (circled function) found? Only part i don't understand was it the quotient rule?

quotient rule is overrated since a quotient is just another type of prduct
OpenStudy (amistre64):
\[\frac fg=fg^{-1}\]
OpenStudy (amistre64):
... also, we have no idea what the (circled function) is to start with :/

thats an awful thing to post ...
OpenStudy (amistre64):
f(g) to f'(g) * g'
OpenStudy (amistre64):
\[f=4u(u^2+3)^{-1}\]
\[f'=4(u^2+3)^{-1}-4u(2u)(u^2+3)^{-2}\]
\[g=4x^2+7x+1\]
\[g'=8x+7\]
OpenStudy (amistre64):
g(0)=1 so define f'(1) and g'(0)
OpenStudy (amistre64):
and yes, they used the "qoutient rule" on your circled part ...

if you want to use it; i like to define it in terms of t and b, for top and bottom\[\frac tb\to\frac{bt'-b't}{b^2}\]

i see, lol i understand the quotient rule its just when i tried it i seemd to not get the answer they came out with
OpenStudy (anonymous):
never minddd! lol i found out
